Researchers at IIT Roorkee have developed an acid-resistant, silica-shielded magnetic nanocomposite capable of recovering valuable rare earth elements (REEs) while selectively removing radioactive uranium from complex acidic water matrices.
Led by Prof. Nitin Khandelwal, the technology remains stable even under harsh acidic conditions and combines contaminant removal with resource recovery, offering a promising approach towards sustainable water treatment, strategic metal recovery, and environmental protection. The project was supported by the Board of Research in Nuclear Sciences (BRNS), Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India.
Congratulations to Prof. Nitin Khandelwal, Ms. Bhavya Swami, and the research team on this significant contribution to sustainable materials, environmental engineering, and resource recovery.

Excited to share our latest work in Environmental Science & Pollution Research! We demonstrate how multi-layered hard-rock aquifers fundamentally alter heavy metal transport compared to single-rock systems.
